You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

  1. What team members are actively logged in

    Would be a great idea to allow the Super Admin to go into the team management area and see what team members are logged in.

    • Use Twitter's url shrinking for tweets

      If I put in a Tweet with a URL that causes it to exceed the 140 character limit I have two choices: Use HootSuite's shortening service, which obscures the URL or have the URL excluded. If I put that same text and link in Twitter's tweet entry page then it would accept it just fine.

      I don't like obscuring the URL with HootSuite's shortening service (that hides the information about the URL). If HootSuite called Twitter's API and got the t.co shortened URL then it would appear in Twitter as the actual URL which delivers a lot more information to…

        • The Quick Search box should be movable

          It is not possible to drag the Quick Search box around; its position is fixed, and so it hides whatever is behind it. It should be made to be movable.

          • Allow the creation of automatic suffix for social media posts.

            Facebook, I'd end with "Like It and Share it!"; For Twitter, I'd end with #ChicagoEvents.

            • bring back the "twitter follower growth aggregate" metric back to pro plan.

              I used it just last month and now it's only available for enterprise users. Sadness.

                Although available for facebook pages, it would make my life a lot easier if I had this option on my profile account too.

                • Delete and Archive Posts within Conversations

                  Conversations are a useful way to keep track of content that needs attention, but needs to be aggregated along with other content for long-term consideration, instead of short term action (resolution).

                  Archives would be useful to download, and the ability to delete a post is a must, in my opinion.

                  • Develop a Mozilla base app for Firefox.

                    See developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/apps. These are installable on Firefox OS, and via the Firefox web browser. These may be mobile only or for Firefox as well. Firefox OS apps can still be installed via the Firefox browser and are similar to Google Chrome apps. If written for HTML5, the code should be virtually identical for Chrome and Firefox.

                      The ow.ly all links report only shows the links with at least one qlik. I would like to see also the published ow.ly links which haven't received a qlik.

                      • Balloons and streamers should fall from the roof when you sign up for a Pro account.

                        When a customer signs up for a Pro account, there should be more fanfare. Balloons and streamers falling from the roof would be great way to do this.

                        Other alternatives could be Owly appearing at your front door to give you a hug or Dave Olson giving you an awesome high five through the screen, setting off an amazing sunny sequence with cars and explosions.

                        • Autoschedule by default in android/ios apps

                          I often want to autoschedule retweets on android or iphone. But doing so takes 6 clicks. Please replace retweet button with A(uto)S(chedule)Rt button.
                          Or make it so that retweet button will autoschedule allways when you enable AS.

                                    • Add custom distance entries to geo searches on your mobile apps

                                      I think it would be great if we could specify a distance to search for tweets, just like you can do on the web dashboard, as opposed to only being able to search up to 25km

                                        Hi there!

                                        You can currently do this through a saved stream. If you save a stream with a geocode, go to the Home Stream. Then, choose Edit on the top left, select the stream and edit the distance at the end of the stream.

                                        Hope this helps! If you have further questions, please head to our community support forum here: hootsuite.com/forum.

                                        Thanks!

                                        Sarah @HootSuite_Help – http://hootsuite.com/help

                                        • Twitter follower growth weekly update

                                          Instead of manually having to update Twitter follower growth module, there must be a way to implement an update system so user's are not confused by the requirement to manually update.
